Tune up day 2011
Re: Tune up day 2011
Thanks Bill!! So looking forward to this! I had so much fun last year I can hardly wait! I might have my "70" Adventurecamper "On the Road Again" by then. Rebuilt the motor over the winter and just about ready to put it in and start him up!! Might have a project in mind for "Big Orange" though. Gotta figure out wether it should be done up there though.Thanks again for All You (and Pam) do for us all here at LEAKOIL!

I'll shuttle the rides out of hiding for checkups throughout the day.
Mark, if you show up I'll have your glass. If not I will get it to somebody that can meet you at Buses and Boats, I swear!

Re: Tune up day 2011
Hello-
It has been a while since I have been online but I am finally getting back into working on my 82 Westy. I hope to make the trip to Elyria for the tune up day and have the opportunity to meet some fellow VW owners.
Don from Canton if you are out there - you remember me, I made the trip to your place a few years ago when I was having issues with the hydraulic lifters.
Looking forward to the event.

Re: Tune up day 2011
Hello Joe. Hope you can make it up. Tune up day is always a great experience. Whether you're fixing something on your bus, or just hanging out taking it all in, you'll find the group very open and welcoming. Look forward to meeting you in person!wolfej1 wrote:Hello-

Re: Tune up day 2011
Just a note about tune up day. IF the weather looks to be REALLY crappy, heavy rain,or very windy,or unseasonally cold,so that we can't do any outside work or keep the overhead doors open,I will move it 1 week to the 21st.Let's all hope for decent weather. If we are going to move the date I will post no later than Wed evening.

Bill & everyone.....
I'm looking forward to this event and getting to meet you all in person. Wish I could drive my Westy up, but I've only driven it about 20 miles total. Still getting all the bugs worked out. If the weather is decent, I may drive my Oval. See ya Saturday!

Re: Tune up day 2011
I should be there, but will have to make the trip in my work car and not a VW. Just don't have the time to make the drive in an aircooled right now!
